Hi, I want to model the changes in shape of partially water and air filled drink can in a cold envoirnment (refrigerator). This is my first two way FSI problem. The changes in pressure inside Can due to cooling and solidification of water will regulate the shape changes of Can. Solid body has to be part of both Fluent and Trans. Structural. Please suggest suitable methods. Thank you in advance.

Hello 

I recommend going over this tutorial in the Ansys documentation that shows a 2-way FSI simulation with Fluent and Mechanical.

Reed Valve FSI Co-Simulation with Partial Setup Export from Workbench (Fluent-Mechanical) (ansys.com)

Hope this helps!
